This is getting like the Barry penalty.

According to someone on here who's spoken to an Everton director, Kenwright is saying that publicly but has no intention of selling.

Mostly positive.  The ride under MON was the most thrilling in quite sometime.  And he has been a sensible owner who has bought into the history of the club.  I think he is selling at about the right time, so I wish him well.

The last four years have been a bloody disgrace though, and all the good feeling he generated in those first few years have been absolutely eroded for me.
Good riddance to him. He turned us into perennial relegation strugglers and I for one won't forgive him for that.

I can only think he appointed Mcleish to spite the villa fans. For that he cannot be forgiven.

Off course he did. I imagine he sat down with Faulkner drew a spider diagram with the goal Fucking Over Villa fans in the middle. Nobody is saying it wasn't a really bad decision but you don't have come out with some Pearls of Misery.

Oh, please, what utter nonsense.

Honestly, do you really believe that? Really?

It's no secret why we ended up with McLeish, it was because of the beloved embarrassing letter from Alex Ferguson bigging up one of his mates.

I thought he was better than Houllier?

Really? It's time to step away from whatever tipple you are partaking of my friend. Houllier at least had an ethos of playing football even if it fell away at times, McLeish was the very definition of negativity.

Sorry, should explain the backstory here. Sillhillvilla spent quite a long time trying to argue that McLeish was better than Houllier, and yet here he is saying that the McLeish appointment was the unforgivable low point. I'm just trying to find out which it is.
